32 in. because 2.5 feet is only 30 in
It would be a lot better if you zoomed in for these since it’s nearly impossible to read.
The first one is the correct answer due to 4 is the initial height of the plaint and 0.75 are inches that being added every week
Hi!
We are given the information found in the picture below.
Note: The directions aren't correct, but the triangle works for this problem.
The "direct path" is the hypotenuse of this triangle.
To find this, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, where and are 2 legs of the triangle, and is the hypotenuse, aka the longest side of any triangle:
We know and and want
Therefore, is approximately
Answer:
x>7 or x ≤ -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving the 1st inequality
-6x +14 < -28 --------------- (Collect like terms)
-6x < -28 - 14
-6x < - 42 -------------------- (Divide both sides by -6)
Note: If you decide an inequality expression by a negative value, the inequality sign changes)
-6x/-6 > -42/-6
x > 7
Solving the 2nd inequality
9x + 15 ≤ −12 ----------- (Collect like terms)
9x ≤ −12 - 15
9x ≤ −27 ------------------(Divide both sides by 9)
9
9x/9 ≤ −27/9
x ≤ -3
Bring both results together, we get
x>7 or x ≤ -3
The final result is complex (i.e. can't be combined together).
